Fruits contain way too much sugar for a healthy hamster! You should not feed a hamster, this small especially, fruit! Any fruit that's on here completely ignore! I'm not even sure about some of this other stuff either, like Sweet potatoes. Not too sure about that. Another thing that was on here was Almonds! Never ever feed your hamster almonds. On one it saysnuts(no almonds What's really good for your hamster are pellet diets and leafy green vegetables! These hamsters have a keen sense of smell so they will pick through commercial food to find the good tasting but unhealthy pieces. This is why pellet diets are extremely good for making sure that your hamster gets the right amount of nutrients.

my Chinese dwarf hamsters eat sunflower seeds and baby spinach. Chinese dwarf Hamsters are no different from any other hamsters, (other than physical features) you can go to your local pet store and get some hammie food.

Try getting treats from petco designed for hamsters, i currently have two robo dwarf hamsters and one of them really likes strawberry and blueberry flavored treats but the other never takes them off my hand and i never see him eat them so i need to try other treats

I bought hamster treats from Walmart once and they didnt seem to like them very much so i suggest any store designed for pets (hamster section)

hope this helped

Any hamster/gerbil mix from your local pet store is fine, as well as carrots and apples (cut VERY small)

Russinan Dwarf hamsters love berries, yogurt drops, apple bits, and carrot bits. They need special chew sticks, and most are flavored like berries, for the health of their teeth.

Yes, as can any hamster. But please never, ever feed them citrus fruits such as lemons.

Good luck!
